Article by Minor Markle

Post by rocktupac »

Does anyone have an electronic copy of either of these articles?

-Minor M. Markle, 'The Macedonian Sarissa, Spear, and Related Armor', American Journal of Archaeology, (1977) Vol. 81 No. 3, pp. 323-339.

-Minor M. Markle, 'Use of the Sarissa by Philip and Alexander of Macedon', American Journal of Archaeology, (1978) Vol. 82 No. 4, pp. 483-497.


If you do, could you please send them to me in an email or another way? I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

I have them both, but they are very large - the first is 4MB and the second around 2.5MB. If your email can accept attachments that big, PM me your email address and I'll pop them over to you.

In the words of Yoda: "There is another...."

Send me your email and I'll forward you "The Shield Monument at Veroia" wherein the apostle of the Macedonian aspis recants his position on the Tomb of Lyson and Kallikles.

There may be one or two others I have that might interst you Scott.

.....beware, Scott! Minor Markle is good at presenting evidence and his articles are useful for that, but his opinions are badly flawed ( in my opinion, and of others) and his conclusions often demonstrably inaccurate.......

Indeed Old Man, indeed.

They should be read though. I'll send them on the weekend - after I get through the Cox Plate.

I owe you a few too Paul: my hard drive was destroyed for some weeks but a marvellous job by a "geek" mate has restored about 95% of it. Most (if not all) my stuff survived - in a fashion. I'll get to you too!

Oh I know, from the beginning I disagreed with many of his conclusions. But like Paralus says, I should read them...

Thanks again!
